oUrtlMV, OCIOHUK uiaa MUDKOKD MAIL TRIBUNE. MKDFOKD, OREGON THE WEEK IN CALIFORNIA World Series, Nobel Peace Prize Noted in News Events By United Press International The king is dead, long live the Los Angeles Dodgers. Just ask any Californian, and he'll tell you what last week's big news story was: The World Series. And lefthander Sandy Koufax got it over within a hurry, pitch ing the Dodgers to a 2-1 victory on Sunday to complete a four game sweep of the heavily fav ored New York Yankees, the de fending champs. It was Koufax who also won the initial game of the series, in Yankee Stadium, and struck out 15 Yankees for a new World Series record. To no one's sur prise, the southpaw was named the series' most valuable play er. Some 55.912 fans saw the fin al game of the series in Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles. By win ning, the National League and now world champs will collect about $13,000 apiece. The Yan kees, who won the American League pennant, will take home about $8,500 each. Eleswhere, there were these developments: Triplets: The World Series al so had its effect on the stork world. The parents of triplets born in Compton named all three infants including one girl after three star pitchers of the Los Angeles Dodgers. The par ents, Mr. and Mrs. Eddie Turn er, named the babies Don (after Don Drysdale) .Ronald (for Ron Perranoski) and Sandy (for San dy Koufax.) The three were born on the final day of the series. Pauling: Dr. Linus Pauling, professor at the California Insti tute of Technology in Pasadena, was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize and thus became the sec ond two-time winner in the his tory of the award. Although the Norwegian Nobel Prize commit tee did not say why Pauling was honored, there was indication it was for his efforts to outlaw nu clear testing. The 62-year-old Californian also won the prize for chemistry in 1954. Warrants: The judges were fined and two other persons, in cluding a former deputy sheriff, were sentenced to jail in Ukiah for their respective roles in last year's "warrant war" in Men docino county. Their trial and convictions resulted from their parts in the issuance of 57 ar rest warrants last year. The warrants all were quashed by other judges. Narcotics: More than 200 bot tles of narcotics and drugs wash ed ashore at Daly City and were discovered by thousands of Sun day bathers. The unusual find appeared to be the backwash of a narcotics dumping operation held at sea by the state. But officials insisted the drugs were not part of the cache. The nar cotics included methedrine a brain stimulant and numerous bottles of other substances, such as white powder which author ities believed to be heroine. Banks: The federal govern ment filed suit to block the mer ger of two large California banks. The justice department contended that the merger would seriously and unlawfully impair present and future com petition. The suit, filed ir U.S. District Court in San Francisco, named as defendants the Crocker-Anglo National Bank, with headquarters in San Francisco; and the Citizens National bank, Los Angeles, and the Trans America Corp., San Francisco, a holding company which has working capital of the Citizens Bank. Segregation: Robert L. Car ter, general counsel for the Na tional Association for the Ad vancement of Colored People, warned that his organization would go to court to end so called de facto segregation in San Francisco and Oakland schools. Carter spoke to news men in San Francisco. Mean while, in Sarcramento, a su perior court judge ordered the city school system to devise a means to desegregate the Stan ford Junior High school, which he said was a victim of de facto segregation. The school burned down during the summer and the students were sent to an ad jacent school. The NAACP then went to court in an effort to have the students, mostly Ne gro, distributed throughout the city. Shrivcr: Peace Corps Director Sargent Shriver came to Cali fornia on a recruiting mission, visiting several college and uni versity campuses throughout the state. "Back in Washington," he said, "We refer to California as the Peace Corps state. Califor nia has produced more volun teers than any other state . . ." Burglar: A burglar broke into a San Francisco flat and walk ed away with $29 sorth of phon ograph records, coins and a table radio. He left the follow ing typewritten note: "In all my 30 years as an honest, hard working burglar, seldom have I came (sic) across as miser able a haul as this. You peo ple ought to leave some cigar ettes around for guests. You ought to be ashamed of your selves. Meditate on this, friends: Everything which I leave be hind isn't even worth stealing. Til later, Sydney the burglar." 4 It's commg...

LOUIS (UPI) - Roger Lord, 78, bettered his age by two strokes when he carded A 7fi on the Old Warson Country club golf course. By MAURICE GUINDI United Press International CAIRO (UPI) - A new life starts next Thursday for the vanguard of 50,000 Egyptian Nu bians who will move to e w homes from their archeological ly famed ancestral land astride the Nile south of Aswan. It will be a journey of no re turn. Next summer the back waters of the Aswan high dam now under construction will start flooding the 200 - mile stretch of land along the Nile making up present-day Nubia. In one of modern history's biggest resettlement projects, the Nubians, tall, handsome Ne groid people who inhabited southern Egypt for centuries, will be given abode in 33 newly built villages. Some Not Happy They are in the Kom-Ombo area on the eastern bank of the Nile 40 miles north of Aswan. Some Nubians, especially older ones who are sentimentally at tached to their homeland, are not happy about the change but they accept it as unavoidable. The actual transfer will be completed in eight months, but the process of putting the gentle, hospitable and poor Nubians on their feet economically and so' eially and fusing them in their new surroundings is expected to take five or six years. The "exodus" of the 16,861 Nubian families from their homeland, famed for its virtual ly crimeless record, is a neces sary prelude to completion of the first stage of the billion dollar, Russian - financed high dam that will store enough irri gation water to add just over Advertisement YOU PAY ONLY $Cfi50 SEE YOUR PLUMBER OR DEALER TODAY Caii form a-Paci fic Utimtiks Company Phont 772-S281, M.dford 481-2116, Athlind GAS WATER HEATER DEALERS A-1 Dey ft Nit Plumbing 772-678 leaver Electric 773-454?

Admission $1 00 2 million acres to Egypt's 6.7 million acres of arable land. To Be Completed The southern section of the dam, called the upstream cof ferdam, is scheduled to be com pleted next summer and the waters it will back up then will flood the first of Nubia's 40 villages which dot the river banks all the way from the dam site to the Sudan border. When construction of the main dam is completed in 19G8, the water will have completely sub merged the rest of the Nubian villages. Although the flooding will be gradual over a period of four years, the government has decided to resettle all the Nu bians in a single operation start ing Oct. 17 and ending next June. A basic principle guiding the resettlement project has been to reproduce for the Nubians in their new environment some of the conditions prevailing in their old homeland so the change may be less jolting. Resettlement Area The resettlement a.r e a, stretching in a semi-circle with a radius of 20 miles from the city of Kom-Ombo, provides a terrain and a landscape bearing shades of resemblance to the Nubian scene hilly with an alternation of green patches, yellow desert sand and an oc casional brownish rock protru sion. But it does not offer the same ruggedness and vastness so dear to the hearts of the nature-hardened Nubians. As in Nubia, the resettlement area has been divided into three zones and each will accommo date one of the three ethnic Nubian groups. There will be the El-Knouz in the north, the Bedouins in the center and the Nuhis in the south. The Bedouins speak Arabic while the other two have their own dialects. Each has its own customs and traditions and thoy hardly ever mixed socially in Nubia. They expressed the de sire to keep things the same way in the resettlement area and the government acquiesced. village, the social position of the family an important fac tor in Nubian life will be taken into consideration. Many families will even have the same neighbors. And the same order of things in each village will be maintained, with improvements in method. Dwellings in the new villages are built of masonry and their design was approved by Nubian representatives before construc tion began in April, 1962. They consist of four, three or two rooms each plus a yard, a shed and a kitchen. They have been built in neat rows close to each other and the rooms can be considered of me dium size by modern urban standards. But the Nubians, ac customed to much greater space in and out of their old homes, criticize them as not sufficiently roomy and not far enough apart. 500 Families to Move The first group to move will be the inhabitants of the village of Daboud at the northern tip of Nubia. Its 500 families, com prising 1,223 persons, are pack ing their scant belongings in preparation for the trip to As wan by boat and then to their new abode by car. They will de part Oct. 17 and arrive Oct. 20. Arrangements have been made for moving their livestock too. The chairman of the resettle ment committee, social affairs assistant under - secretary Mo hamed Safwat, told UPI: "Moving the Nubians to their new homes is the easiest part of the project. The really chal lenging task is to help them settle down and feel at home, harmonizing themselves with their new environment and earning enough on their own. This will probably take five or six years." Depend on Agriculture The Nubians depend for their livelihood on agriculture and small manual crafts such as the weaving of straw baskets and the embroidery of multi-colored SKUii-caps. But many of them have anoth er important source of income their younger menfolk who are scattered all over the main cities of Egypt, working as gov ernment and company employ ees, waiters, doorkeepers, cooks and helpers of all sorts and who send part of their earnings to their families back home. The government is paying compensation to the Nubians for their homes and lands which have already been expropriat ed by republican decree. But it will charge them for the new houses and agricultural land they will get in the resettlement area. Half the compensation is paid in cash and the other half will go to cover part of the price of houses and land which will be paid by installment over forty years. Wealth of Antiquities One of the many things the Nubians are sorry to part with is the wealth of antiquities which formed an integral part of their surroundings for many decades. The ancient relics in clude temples, chapels, fortres ses and tombs that have been or will be dismantled and moved to other places or preserved at their present sites, protected from the waters. Foremost among them are the Abu-Simbel temples which will be rebuilt on top of a mountain. By 19B8 the Nubia known to many thousands of foreign tour ists will be under water. In its place there will be the biggest man-made lake in the world. About 360 miles long and five miles wide. It will be the res ervoir of the high dam, storing badly -needed irrigation water for land-hungry Egypt. Zenter Will Play With Johnny Mafhis ASHLAND Si Zenter and his 25 piece orchestra will ap pear with Johnny Mathis, well known recording artists at 8 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 22 in Hed rick Junior High school, Med ford. Zenter, who has had band ex perience with such people as Les Brown, Harry James, and the late Jimmy Dorsey, recently had a record breaking engage ment at the Roosevelt hotel in New York City. He is one of the top trombon ists in the music business. He records for Liberty and among his biggest-to-date albums is "Big Band Plays the Big Hits." Tickets may be purchased at SOC, Purucker's and Mann's in Medford; and the Melody House in Grants Pass. Bloodmobile Will Be in Medford Two Days During Week For the price of a telephone call, nil to most people, a life may be saved. That telephone call is to the American Red Cross chapter and the number is 773-3813. In fact, the telephone isn't even necessary. Shoppers and people working downtown can drop in from 2 to 6 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 14, or from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 15, at the Bloodmobile at the chapter house, .60 Haw thorne ave., according to Bob Heffernan, chapter chairman. The blood program in Jack son county is carried on by the Red Cross. It is a highly regard ed system which performs a generous and efficient service. As long as this volunteer type of blood program is in exist ence, residents of the commu nity can feel protected against heavy expense and the trouble involved in obtaining blood if they ever need it, Heffernaa noted. If it were not for the Red Cross Bloodmobile operation, local hospitals and doctors would be dependent on commer cial blood banks, and patients would pay from $25 to $45 a pint for the blood, in addition to the hospital administration charge of about $19. Heffernan, presiding over the monthly Red Cross board of di rectors meeting, said: "If this type of service is to be con tinued, more new recruits ara needed." The blood program, as a vol untary and non-profit service, can make real contributions to society for many years. The ex tent to which it does this wilt be measured in terms of wheth er the generosity of the public comes from a thick or a thin vein, Heffernan said. o QUESTIONS to our fellow citizens of Jackson County Do you know that under Meas I ure 1 our county will receive) $3,054,076.72 Basic School Support funds from the state during the current biennium to offset local property taxes?
